Vijay has a collection of 50 number cubes that are each 1 cubic inch. He finds a box that is 4 inches high. He fits 12 cubes into the bottom of the box. Can vajay fit all his number cubes into the box

No, Vijay cannot fit all cubes into the box.

Solution:

Total number of cubes = 50

Volume of each cube = 1 cubic inch

Number of cubes fit in the bottom of the box = 12

Area of the box = l * b = 12 square inch

Height of the box = 4 inch

Volume of the box = l * b * h

= 12 * 4

Volume of the box = 48 cubic inch

So, 48 cubes can only fit in the box.

Hence, Vijay cannot fit 50 cubes into the box.
